Welcome
to Kenny's world. Little Kenny Kiley watched his brother die at the hands of
the LAPD during a candy heist.

As a teenager
living in the black slums of Los
Angeles during the 1950s, Kenny is driven to join one of the toughest
gangs in
L.A. before shipping out for Vietnam. As an adult, Kenny struggles to
overcome
a lifetime of prejudice to make a life for himself and the woman who
became his
family. The blinders of honor are removed in the jungles of Vietnam and
American soldiers are exposed the harsh reality of war and the
conspiracies and political games
that cause them.

"[Kenny]
finds that there is no honor or humanity in war; he commits many atrocities
that haunt him upon his return to the U.S. He also
discovers that the information given to the American public regarding what is
really going on in Southeast Asia has no bearing on reality. He is not
imagining a conspiracy theory. He is living it."

Back in the
U.S., Kenny slips into a life of government supplied drugs to support
himself and his new family. Hazel, his wife, is not caught up in the CIA
and Rand conspiracies weaved on the UCLA campus., but becomes a pawn in
the cointelpro schemes activated by an undercover police officer, who
was Kenny's erstwhile friend. Government crime, conspiracy and scandal
drives the action as it does the
life of a black man caught in the grips of a police state.
